General Information / Field Modification
 
STEP 1:  If the electrical outlet box has not been installed so it extends from the wall the same dimensions as the finished wall panel, an extender sleeve should be used to extend the outlet box flush with the panel face.
 
STEP 2:  Position the panel on the wall at desired installation location . Apply pressure to the face of the panel to allow the outlet to make a slight indentation in the back of the panel. Coating the edges of the outlet box with chalk will also transfer the outlet location to the back of the panel.
 
 
 
 
An additional 1" clearance at the bottom of any cut-out is required when using Z Clip mounting to allow installation or removal of the panel.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
STEP 3:  After transferring the outlet location to the panel, turn the panel onto its face.  Carefully drill (4)-four pilot holes, one in each corner location of the outlet, through the core material. Be careful to not tear into the covering.
 
STEP 4:  The pilot hole location will serve as a cutting guide to remove the covering. Turn the panel onto its back. Locate the pilot holes through the covering. CAREFULLY cut out an "X" between the pilot holes using a very sharp utility knife. Then peel the covering slightly beyond the amount needed to allow removal of the core material without damage to the covering.
 
STEP 5:  Using a keyhole or saber saw, CAREFULLY cut away the core material. Make a cutout slightly larger than the outlet to allow for fabric wrap. Be certain that the saw does not contact or tear the covering.
 
STEP 6:  Apply contact adhesive around cut-out area. Wrap the covering over the cut edges of the electrical outlet opening.
 
STEP 7:  Install panel to wall and install the outlet faceplate.
